通过 centos 8 上的 mod_jk 将 apache httpd 重定向到 tomcat

Question

Im trying to force apache httpd to redirect some requests to tomcat. I'm using mod_jk. My testapp is reachable via https://www.myDomain.pl:8443/testapp but apache httpd returns 404 if run via https://www.myDomain.pl/testapp .

What am I doing wrong? Help pls

Here are my configuration files changes:

/usr/local/tomcat9/conf/server.xml

 <Connector protocol="AJP/1.3"
            address="127.0.0.1"
           port="8009"
           redirectPort="8443"
            secretRequired="false"/>

    <Connector port="8443" protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol"
           maxThreads="150" SSLEnabled="true">

I'm not sure what could be your problem but I would try changing

JkMount /testapp a

to

JkMount / a

Moreover, have you considered using ProxyPass and ProxyPassReverse (https://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc-archive/jk2/proxy.html )?
